“Gege… don’t go…”
“Song Jin, you’re really disgusting.”
“Gege…Gege.”
“I’m fucking my own brother, aren’t I? Aren’t I?”
“Gege…”
“Ge, wouldn’t it be nice for you to be my coming-of-age gift?”
……
The immature child’s voice versus the deep voice of a boy. The four-year-old Song Xinglan versus the eighteen-year-old Song Xinglan. The extreme contrast alternated in the dream. In the end, it was impossible to distinguish the reality from the dream.
Song Jin opened his eyes. His stiff body and the pain he could feel without moving cruelly told him that everything was real.
What was real in the past is also real in the current situation.
Song Jin was lying naked on the bed. His body was covered in bruises and there were obvious blood marks on his hands and wrists.
On the other side of the room, under the slanted skylight, Song Xinglan was smoking as he looked up out of the window. He was also naked.
Song Jin thought that Song Xinglan was drunk last night. Hence, his violence was mostly done impulsively. But he didn’t expect that he could still stand in this room and smoke as if nothing had happened instead of leaving after it was over.
The guy was really sober and had gone crazy.
Song Jin pulled up the messy blanket and covered himself as he moved to the corner. He closed his eyes, trying to escape from reality for a short period of time.
He really wanted to kill Song Xinglan. But he knew he couldn’t do it.
There were many unexplainable absurd things that could happen in this world. There were also many incomprehensible crazy behaviours that people could do. However, above them all, Song Xinglan, as the culprit, could still stand in front of him regardless of what he had done the night before. It was crazy. Still, Song Jin has no intention of revenge.
Because he knew very well that compared to Song Xinglan, he couldn’t use any means to get back at him at all.
The sound of footsteps could be heard. The side of the bed right next to Song Jin’s ears sank. Song Xinglan pressed down on it with one of his hands.
He looked down on Song Jin and asked, “How long are you going to pretend to sleep?”
Song Jin kept his eyes closed and showed no reaction. He was so tired that he could only barely keep breathing. He didn’t want to do anything else.
But the smell of tobacco and the body temperature he could feel gradually approaching him made him felt like he was driven to a corner. Song Jin opened his eyes. Song Xinglan’s lips halted one centimetre away from his lips.
Song Xinglan laughed: “Don’t wanna pretend anymore?”
Song Jin raised his hand and clutched it to his brother’s neck. His fingers trembled. It was not because of force. But it was because of fear.
This is because the expression on Song Xinglan’s face didn’t change at all. He just looked at him condescendingly.
“Get lost.” Song Jin put his hand down and said in a hoarse voice, “Get lost.”
Song Xinglan replied with a question instead: “It’s eight o’clock. Don’t you have any classes today?”
“Get lost.” Song Jin closed his eyes and repeated himself.
Warm palms were placed on Song Jin’s shoulders. They then went down the collarbone, like a poisonous snake crawling across the body. The body temperature was swallowed up by fear, leaving only the feeling of coldness.
Song Jin breathed nervously. He refused to open his eyes: “Song Xinglan…”
